Excited to hear this whistle bellowing through the Cumberland!
576 isn't going to Cumberland
@@chendersonrailproductions704 But the Cumberland River flows through the heart of Nashville. So it will be bellowing through the Cumberland Valley.
Gotta love it!!! 2 grown ‘boys’ playing on the beat damn train set ever!!
I like 765's regular whistle, but this is THE quintessential whistle everyone associates with the age of steam, and would be tied with UP 4014 as my all-time favorites.
This is one of the best sounding Hancocks I've ever heard. Great video, thanks for sharing!
Nashville Steam Volunteer Here: Not a Hancock, believe it or not! It is a NC&StL Shop built one-of-a-kind.
This is Why I Love Every American Engineers of Every American Steam Locomotives The Most ❤🧡💛💚💙💜
That's a might fine sounding, lonesome whistle!
Agreed
I see myself in the blue shirt at 2:41.
Great video! Amazing stack talk from 765! I quite like 765's normal whistle, but this one sounds extra special on 765. I know this is 576's whistle, but it seems like it fits 765 well.
Ok
@@manishas Yep.
Am I the only one who like the old whistle better???
Qt Logic Matt makes sense. This one has a home in Nashville to which it will return.
Imagine a grizzly bear coming out of the woods trying to chase you. That’s what I’m imagining right now.😅
Next time 765 returns to the mainline and then CVSR, she should have even more guest whistles from lost steam locomotives of the past.
No
@@chendersonrailproductions704 never say never
@@chendersonrailproductions704 Why the hell not?
Must be a Hancock 3-chime, it sounds a lot like the 4449, 844 and 4014.
Yes. Many large steam locomotives use a Hancock 3 chime, including SP&S 700, SP 4449, UP 844, UP 3985, UP 4014, WMSR 734, N&W 611, Frisco 1522, Frisco 1630, NCST&L 576, and several others that I've probably forgotten that should probably be on that list too.
Nashville Steam Volunteer here: Actually no. She has a custom made NC&StL shop built 3 chime. Its made of Steel through and through.
@@stuartadamsrailfanningvideos Check my other reply to this.
@@guy_called_Odin Cool! That's fascinating that it was a home built whistle, made right in their own shops!
Is it just me or does that whistle sound like the one on 611?
4014 and 576
The whistle sounds like 4014
4014 has a Hancock three chime that is deeper sounding then this one
How were you able to get a cab ride?
Why does the engineer looks so much like Walter white? Also, great whistle
Hey 👋
What is that park at the end and that tall highway bridge?
You in 765
Must be a trainee Engneer, he keeps bailing off the independent brake even though he hasn't made any automatic brake applications. (We call that patting the Dog in Queensland Rail Australia) making noise for no reason... love the Engine though.
Actually there was an issue with the independent creeping on, so regular bailing keeps the brakes off. The independent valve was changed out the next day and problem was resolved.
I have been running steam locomotives going on 25 years now.
@@jasonjohnson7746 so the maintaining feature was the cause or the control valve.? We don't have 26L equipment on our steam Locomotives, they're all rotary valves A6- A7ET Australian version. No holding position. We use 26L on our clyde diesel Locomotives. Congratulations on 25yrs. Im not far behind myself. 21yrs with QR. Steam experience from1998 to 2019 inside and out of the Railway. Feel free to checkout my channel. Cheers
What is the engineer doing every time he pushes down on the lever?
The large lever above the engineer's head opens the whistle valve, releasing pressurized steam to the whistle which in turn sounds the whistle.
If you mean like he's doing at the start of the video, he's bailing off the locomotive/independent brake.
@@railsandracing Why does he do so often? Or is he just making sure the brakes are always disengaged?
@@Jeragon186 The real engineer in this video actually replied to someone's comment about this. He said that there was a problem with the independent brake valve and the brakes were leaking on.
@@railsandracing Ahh! Ok, That explains everything. Thx!
Bail off some more
